Relates to mandatory training curriculum
This bill requires election commissioners and selected staff to complete mandatory training on how election boards operate.

Training will be offered through various methods, including web-based recorded formats, and must be finished within six months of appointment or by June 1st each year. If an official fails to complete the required instruction, the state board must notify the local governing body and the relevant party chair. The law will not take effect until ninety days after it is passed.
